Originally a spin-off from Yiddish Summer Weimar, Winter Edition has taken on its own life and identity as a festival/institute for music improvisation, the voice, the body and awareness. Under the direction of Dr. Alan Bern and with an outstanding international faculty, the atmosphere of Winter Edition is at the same time interdisciplinary, holistic, intensive, inspiring and rigorous. See the website below for a look back at the 5th Winter Edition that took place in Weimar from Jan 29 - Feb 6, 2011.
